PCF Broadens Delivery Role For The Wall Street Journal
Towson, MD USA – December 3, 2007 – The Wall Street Journal announced today that it selected Publishers Circulation Fulfillment, Inc. (PCF) to distribute an additional 75,000 daily copies to subscribers in Hartford, Conn., Boston, Washington D.C. and select New Jersey counties.
The additional deliveries will increase PCF’s average daily subscriber responsibility for the Journal to more than 330,000 copies.
“PCF has proven itself as a good business partner by rationalizing our distribution costs in major markets,” said Dan Crisp, Executive Director, Delivery Operations for The Wall Street Journal. “We opened bidding in several carrier delivery markets this year, and PCF presented a solid business plan to leverage its reach in the northeast to expand our relationship. PCF clearly recognizes the increasingly competitive distribution market and demonstrates the ability to be competitive in their existing coverage areas as well as a willingness to enter new, uncompetitive markets. We view them as a key partner in our push to improve delivery service for our subscribers and aggressively manage down our delivery costs over the next year.”
“This is an historic win for PCF, and marks the first time we have won multiple markets simultaneously from a national publication.” said Kevin Daly, Vice President, Distribution Services at PCF. “We thank The Wall Street Journal for its continued trust in us and look forward to further demonstrating our high-quality performance while meeting their subscriber needs.”
